CentOS 7 Release 1611 (64-bit Install)

CentOS derives from Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and features a two-year release cycle, a six-month update cycle, and a 10-year security maintenance cycle, resulting in a "secure, low-maintenance, reliable, predictable, and reproducible Linux environment" [1]. Release 1611 now supports seventh-generation Core i3, i5, and i7 Intel processors and the I2C on sixth-generation Core processors. Other major changes include SHA2 support in OpenLDAP, Bluetooth LE, and updated storage, network, and graphics drivers.
